I will warn you right now. This blog is going to be about religion. I know this topic can get heated so if you want to exit my blog now I understand. However, I have encountered some problems with my son being baptized that are frustrating me. I have been raised Catholic, wen... [More]

Today I was talking to a friend about holiday parties and food. I forgot being on maternity leave how excessive the amount of food is during the holidays at work! She was complaining about how her coworkers give her a hard time for never partaking in the gluttonous act of stuffing themse... [More]

Well, today was our weigh in. My husband lost 4 and I lost a pound. It obviously isn't fair that men seem to always lose a lot more (especially when he was sick and didn't work out at all) but I'm going to be grateful that I've lost thus far. I was really terrified that pregnancy h... [More]

Last week I was discussing with my consultant if it was OK to have a sugar-free pudding every now and then (as they are on the Jenny Craig list of limited foods which a person can have up to 3 of per day). Before starting Jenny Craig I had purchased a pack of Sugar-free Jello Mousse cups (whic... [More]

I'm experiencing my first situation of germs and how they spread like wildfire with family. My husband had a fever yesterday and I kept hoping maybe he was just fighting off a small virus. I didn't want our son to get it being so young. We also have a tradition in my family called ... [More]

Bills. Children are expensive; there's no way around it. But, no one told me how expensive! Now that it's been two months since our son was born and the medical bills are rolling in. It's pretty ridiculous how much it all costs. No wonder doctors are wealthy. &nbsp... [More]

Can you believe it's already December? I just had my first consultation at JC and lost 1.3 pounds! Whooo! My husband lost 2.6 pounds as well. I'm really proud of both of us - losing weight during a holiday week is huge! My husband was disappointed that he hadn't lost mo... [More]

This is a totally random comment but I had to post it...I just saw on Yahoo's site today that a Caramel Latte from Coldstone Creamery is 1,790 calories!!!!! UMMMMM WHAT?! That is insane! I would rather eat a gallon of ice cream or a huge Big Mac for all those calories!
Yest... [More]

The first week you start back on JC they call you 3 days into it to see if you have any questions. This was really nice because as I mentioned earlier, our first consultation with the new director was not ideal. She was quick to rush us out, didn't not prepare us for how to handle Thanks... [More]
